What's on the Starbucks Secret Menu? 10 Great Drinks

Starbucks ultra caramel frappuccino with dark caramel sauce and whipped cream in front of store

Nothing gets people talking like a good mystery. Who was D.B. Cooper? What really happened in Roswell, New Mexico? What’s on Starbucks’ secret menu? We know what you’re thinking; one of these is not quite like the other two, and we agree. By far, the most interesting is the secret menu at Starbucks. Many people think the secret menu is a myth, but we’re here to set the record straight and tell you that it exists. Ok, maybe we overstate how secret the Starbucks secret menu actually is. These days, it’s more of an open secret menu than a truly secret menu. The trick to navigating the menus is knowing what you want to order before you go. The more specific you can be, the better. That’s why we put together this guide. In this article, we’re going to demystify the Starbucks secret menu for you and show you some of our favorite drinks on it. Let’s get started!

The 10 Best Drinks on the Starbucks Secret Menu:

Before we start discussing specific drinks, we should first point out that the secret menu isn’t an official Starbucks menu at all. Rather, it is a set of drinks that can be made from ingredients that Starbucks typically has. Starbucks fans create their drinks and post them online for others to enjoy. Since Starbucks themselves don’t know about these drinks, you have to order them by their ingredients rather than by a special name. If you want to order any of these drinks, make sure you write down the recipe before you go. Since your barista won’t be familiar with your drink, you’ll have to be precise when you order. Otherwise, you risk getting something other than what you want.

1. Cookies & Cream Frappuccino


2. Cotton Candy Frappuccino


3. Cake Batter Frappuccino


4. S’mores Hot Chocolate


5. Fruity Pebbles Frappuccino


6. Chocolate Dalmatian


7. Orange Creamsicle Frappuccino


8. Caramel Snickerdoodle Macchiato

Snickerdoodles were a staple of our childhood growing up, and this drink totally does them justice. Ask for an iced soy caramel macchiato with one pump of vanilla syrup and one pump of cinnamon dolce syrup.


9. Banana Split Frappuccino


10. Pumpkin Pie Frappuccino

Conclusion

Starbucks’ secret menu isn’t much of a secret these days. Still, it is a source of an endless variety of drinks limited only by your imagination, the imagination of the Internet, and the ingredients they have at Starbucks. Keep in mind that the secret menu isn’t an official Starbucks offering, so make sure you know exactly what you want before you order. You’re essentially just asking them to combine ingredients they have on hand, but if you aren’t specific, they might not be able to help you. These are ten of our favorite drinks from the secret menu but think about some of the drinks you’ve had at Starbucks and try to come up with your own combinations. It’s a fun way to try new flavors and, who knows, maybe your creation will be the next hit on social media! Related Reads:
